Capella and Jamiesons research of how the media describes politics has shown that it is very often case of one of two scenarios: game frames; or issue frames. The central idea of this framing theory is that when politicians are described within game frames the disdain towards politicians is believed to increase. Capella and Jamieson have shown that, at least in the US, the use of game framing has increased. The Swedish Scholar Jesper Strömbäck has however, with his research, shown that, despite the earlier theory of Capella and Jamieson, in Sweden the tendency is not so clearly demarcated. In fact he says that if anything, the tendency looks to be the antithesis.

The aim of this paper is to define and analyze how the teacher and parents communicate during a parent conference, to acquire knowledge about how the professional conversation can be used during a parent conference. Our study has focused on the teacher?s professional skills during the parent conference. Parent conference has traditional been a time for teachers to inform the parents about the classroom work.

Being able to reflect, evaluate and justify your views is an important part of adult life.

This paper investigates the presentation of Islam in textbooks used in the study of religion in high schools. The papers focus on two main questions concerning the ways in which Islam is presented in the analysed textbooks, and how the new curriculum has influenced the portrayal of Islam in the materials. Here, the paper utilizes a method of critical discourse analysis with Faircloughs three-dimensional analysis. The paper then concludes that the presentation of Islam is negative in nature, with the content and view of Islam having been simplified and stereotyped. Often the textbooks studied frame Islam as being an aggressive and oppressive religion, especially in matters con-cerning women.

Syftet med föreliggande undersökning är att utröna huruvida det skett en förskjutning av den ideologiska hegemonins ramar skönjbar i slutdebatterna inför riksdagsvalen 1976, 1982, 1991 samt 1994. Vidare sätts denna eventuella förskjutningen i relation till de ekonomiska kriser som Sverige genomled under 1970-talet och det tidiga 1990-talet. För att utröna skiftningar i den ideologiska hegemonin analyseras partiledarnas framträdande mot bakgrund av Ljunggrens definition av vad som utgör en ideologi. Jag fann att det skett en förändring i vad som ryms inom den ideologiska hegemonins ramar. Vikten av att framstå som regeringsdugliga har ökat och debatterna har även i viss mån avideologiserats.

The main objective of this study was to find out what pedagogical documentation does and to get knowledge of what you may need to consider in order starting a process of change with a focus on pedagogical documentation. To get answers to my questions, the study is based on pedagogical theories from scientists and interviews with three preschool teachers who have different experience on documentation. My main questions were: What characterizes a pedagogical documentation? What tools / materials do I need to do a pedagogical documentation? What is important to consider when starting the process of change with pedagogical documentation? The result shows that pedagogical documentation is an approach that is based on that one is curious, interested, observant, listens, talking and researching with children and colleagues. You give the kids great participation which you can then pick up the children's learning processes and reveals that the business and the children develop according to curriculum objectives.

Practice of mathematical proof increase the understanding of mathematics anddevelop creativity skills, problem solving, communication, logical thinking andreasoning which are all important tools not only within the subject of mathematicsbut also important tools for the society in which we are living. The aim of this projectwas to investigate whether it is accurate that proof and proving has a subordinate rolein mathematic education in the upper secondary school in Sweden. This was done byconstructing of a digital survey that was sent to approximately 100 practicingmathematics teachers in a normal size city located in the middle of Sweden. Theresults of the survey show that the teachers consider themselves comfortable withtheir own skills in teaching proof. Paradoxically, the results also show that there is alack of teaching of proof and proving in the upper secondary school, although the newcurriculum puts more focus on proof and proving..

Enkäter används flitigt idag. Spector (1994) menade att endast en liten del av den förklarade variansen i enkäter utgörs av det som önskas mäta. Bryggan mellan respondenten och enkäten är språket.

Efter avregleringen år 1992 av de svenska kommunernas nämndstruktur har nya styr- och organisationsformer införts. En diskussion har förts om huruvida avregleringen skulle leda till likformning eller mångfald. Denna uppsats har som i svenska kommuner. Vid en jämförelse med en tidigare studies resultat kan vi se hur styr- och organisationsformernas popularitet och utbredning har förändrats. Detta gör vi för att pröva tesen om att det har skett en likformning av de svenska kommunerna under en längre tid.
